She didnt take a punch, she got shoved hard on her shoulder, so far from the vicious assault being reported | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |

Id rather not. Because sometimes it is a bullet to the face. Happened to a friend in Philly several years ago. Two kids. They were caught only a few hours later because they were bragging to their friends. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Those are novels. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
And the writers of novels, especially detective novels, tend not to be stupid people and to read a lot of background.
There's about a four-paragaph section in the 3rd book which covers that incident and there's also a bibliography of (real) works which reference the activity of the Swedish Security Police. I can only assume the author read them. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
The original comment said he might have been assassinated by Swedish police. Then you step in and say yes, because you read that theory in a fictional book. That fictional book is written by an author who said he thought Palme was murdered by South African agents. But you think the theory in the book might be correct because fictional stories are often well researched.
Have I understood this correctly? The line of reasoning you put forward seems crazy. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |

At what quality level? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-07-06 |
Yep. Not sure if anyone recalls what garbage they were. Anyway, I dont mean to go down a rabbit hole, just saying anyone is capable of improving if they choose to. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-07-06 |
South Korean kit is top notch. Hyundai/Samsung/Hanwha do *not* fuck around with defense tech. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-07-06 |
Quality is great. The reason why Korean arms equipment is cheap is cause they've been preparing for war, as if they are still in war. The only two countries that have the infrastructure to mass produce high tech arms equipment immediately upon order outside China, are the US and South Korea.
Just as a few examples
12 FA50 fighter jets were manufactured and delivered to Poland within just 15 months of signing the contract.
46 K2 Tanks were delivered to Poland within just 2 years. In comparison Germany's Rheinmetal produced just one tank in the same period.
The K9 self-propelled howitzer was recently tested by Romania, and 100% of their shots bulls-eyed, like a sniper.
Their Jangbogo-III class submarine currently purused by the Canadian Navy is the only non-nuclear battery powered sub that can last beyond a month underwater. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-07-06 |
"up to" | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-07-06 |
Pretty much top tier. There is a reason several NATO members have place contracts for their systems. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-07-06 |
Makes a lot of sense. They aren't reinventing the wheel just making it well. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Poland has huge defense ambitions it will be interesting to see where they are at in the next 10-20 years | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
They keep military equipment all around Korea too. Seeing a battery of self propelled arterrliy wasn't too uncommon. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
NO! Fuck you Aldaris!! | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
What is that in correlation of poop balloons?
Can the tanks cover the gap in technology? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
> Any enemy
I was gonna point out that is basically Russia but yeah.
Just to add a lot of that stuff is basically built in Poland, or partially built in Poland. This means the production lines are not only for the domestic market but also for the international market. Especially the EU. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Yeah about 300. It's the Homar-K https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K239_Chunmoo | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Are working conditions in Korea good? Is it true that people work insane hours and that's why the birth rate is so low? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
I read an article a while back that predicted WW3, if it doesn’t go nuclear and ends up a protracted would start with smart weapons and end with dumb weapons.
The theory is that the belligerent parties would burn through their stockpiles of super advanced weaponry in the early years of the war and then not have the resources to produce more. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Maybe it was cold out the last time the other guys heard it. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |

To clarify: the South Korean Government was going to introduce a law to raise the maximum allowed work hours per week from 52 to 69.
I've heard from my Korean friend that some argue that a lot of **workers in South Korea are actually working more than 52 hours** (due to culture/toxic work environment), but couldn't be legally acknowledged by the company for those hours thus **couldn't be paid for those hours**.
So, an argument was, to raise the maximum hours so the people who do that at least **can legally get paid for those hours**.
But I don't know how effective it would be, or the "real" intention behind passing those laws.
And apparently it got a lot of backlash so the law never passed. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
I'm not surprised. The Koreans and Asian countries in general can turn out numbers. Quality varies wildly. But far more consistent in Japan and Korea. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
> Are working conditions in Korea good?
fuck no. but i guess pay for management level at one of the chaebols is pretty fucking great. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Are these trade shows invite only? Because this looks like it would be a blast to go to. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Yea, the way it basically went is that Poland went to LockMart and was like, "We'll take 1000 of your finest HIMARS please", and LockMart couldn't actually build them as fast as they wanted, so Poland split the difference, ordered 500 HIMARS, and filled out the rest of the order with the Korean version.
Poland did the same thing with tanks, they bought a bunch of Abrams from the US, and then turned around and bought a bunch of Korean tanks too.
[Here's a section from Perun's slideshow on global arms exports, and what Poland did to the Korean arms industry. ](https://youtu.be/JfMYpmrTGm0?si=cHpJt2Hh2TXPsHFl&t=1634) Poland basically bought everything that they possibly could. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Is anyone going to tell this guy? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Anyone else confused as to why we still have wars? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Yea the royalty mentality is not great lol. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
That plays a big part. Korean men can also make very poor romantic partners and there's a big divide between what many Korean men expect from their wives and what many modern Korean women want. A lot of Korean women are choosing not to get married on purpose l. Also salary to housing cost for purchase can be extremely high. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
Circa 2009/10 - Samsung NJ. This was the early days of LTE modems and Galaxy phones. I was driving through and was visiting a friend, around 11pm.
The cubicles had one Korean fresh grad working at the desk and another one sleeping right under it, working in shifts. An entire floor of this setup. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
That is fair, but also a foreign expert visa isn't something that is intended to be handed out en masse to fill shifts in a factory. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
I mean not really if you think about it. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |

They probably won’t be a US prime contractor for anything big in the foreseeable future, but I wouldn’t be surprised if their share of subcontracts increases. They’ve also racked up some pretty significant sales to European and southeast Asian nations, which is pretty notable. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |

Howitzers are dinosaurs compared to 80 plus years of military tech | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
The war in Ukraine has opened a lot of eyes to the realization of what happens when you fight a protracted war where neither side can gain air superiority and run out of advanced weapons; you resort back to lobbing shells and dumb bombs at each other en mass. Currently the military industry of countries like Russia and China are built for that style of war and NATO aligned countries have taken notice. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
I use "up to" at work when I'm lumping something in that's not necessarily reflected by the quoted stat. "Customers who do x are up to y-times as likely to do z as other customers."
X does contain the subset of customers who do y at that rate, but also includes customers doing something semi related and do y at a lesser rate. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |

BRICS is a construct of almost zero consequence. This needs reminding each time it is brought up.
* BRICS has no powers - in contrast to the way the EU can make binding decisions for its member states, which have ceded some of their sovereignty.
* Member states of BRICS have power, but they are not necessarily all very aligned - similar to G7 or G20 member states.
* China and Russia are aligned - but not because of BRICS.
* India is a member of BRICS - but absolutely not aligned with China!
* The more countries that officially sign up to BRICS, the less united the forum becomes. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |

positive sign, no? One looks back at how effectively Ataturk modernized and reformed the Turkish state, and how he truly lived up to his middle name, and until Erdogan is gone, poor fellow must be turning in his grave. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |

This is so cringe. I know how people like you work. You are an Ukraine supporter just like anyone else. But you think being an Ukraine supporter gives you the right to make all sorts of outlandish statements with no backing and people have to accept it cause you are supposedly on the side of good guys. And if they don’t, you bully them and label them as a Russian sympathiser

It’s sad to see that one of the great achievements of Atatürk, the secularization of government and the law as well, is gradually being eroded. Kemalism emphasized Turkish nationalism and secularism, while Erdogan’s platform harks back to the days of the Ottoman Empire. But I guess that’s why he’s often associated with neo-Ottomanism. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-07-06 |

Are you saying you'd be happy with a Trump win so we can be handed one the most consequential geostrategic loss in the 21st century? Trust me that's a way worse option.
If the US fails/falters in Ukraine Europe itself will be pulled into a direct confrontation with Russia. If that happens, we'll either have to enter fully like ww2 or sit and watch our allies get steamroller by Russia. That means more than likely you and I are getting our asses drafted.
Yeah me personally, I'd like to do whatever I can to avoid that. Thank you very much. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-08-06 |
